Aha this old apple again.....
Right for a sport to recognised as an olympic sport it has to have an international federation and abide by the Olympic movements anti-doping codes and conduct effective out-of-competition tests in accordance with the established rules.
So to get our beloved sport into the event first you need to get a paintball federation set up in your nation (Us in blighty are lucky to have one already) oh and stop taking those cold cure tablets or night nurse. I'm sure nobody else does anything harder then this
. Then get the national sports federations to lobby the olympic movement to have Paintball included as an exhibition sport.
Seems like alot of hard work for somebody doesn't it, well to make it seem a bit easier for you, theres a nation well ahead of the game. The Azerbaijan Olympic Commitee already recognise paintball as an offical sport and have a national team all ready set up.
Oh and you think there are some silly sports in the olympics at the moment try the following out:
Air sports
Netball
Automobile
Orienteering
Bandy
Pelote Basque
Billiard Sports
Polo
Boules
Powerboating
Bowling
Racquetball
Bridge
Roller Sports
Chess
Rugby
DanceSport
Squash
Golf
Surfing
Karate
Sumo
Korfball
Tug of War
Life Saving
Underwater Sports
Motorcycle Racing
Water Skiing
Mountaineering and Climbing
Wushu
How the hell did chess get in there and life saving whats that all about?
